    What is your opinion of the surfaces, detail and grade?
    I tried to show every bit of contact. None are hiding, The only mark you can see with out a loop is the mark on her neck.

    And a couple to show the luster. And a better view of what the coin looks like without magnification.

    Thanks
    For the most part mark free. If I ever decide to send coins into be graded this one will be on the list.
    At 62+ million made, it shouldn't be too hard to find one in gem with out breaking the bank

    It would almost have to be top pop to justify the grading cost.

    It already has a place in the coin cabinet. In a cointain of course.

    Personally, I'd call it a MS-67FB. I've seen worse looking coins in a 67FB holder.

    I think that coin is MS66FB all day long...might even have a shot at 67FB. Beautiful example!
